Total bohemian goddess energy! 🐚 Erica is proving that the best accessories are a sun-drenched shore and a free spirit. From the intricate crochet textures to those stacked turquoise layers, this is the ultimate "wild at heart" aesthetic. 🌊🧶 The Boho Edit: Vibe: Salty hair, sandy toes, and zero worries 🌬️ Look: Earthy textures mixed with oceanic jewels 💎 Mood: Pure, bright daytime radiance ☀️ Shorts designed by me. #BohoBeachStyle #BohemianVibes #EricaInTheElements #CrochetChic #CoastalBoho #BeachBabe #SunKissedSoul #IslandAesthetic #HippieModern #SaltyStateOfMind

There’s something about the way intricate lace and open-knit silhouettes catch the coastal light. 2nd look from my summer designs which felt right at home against the rugged Mornington shoreline. #BeachShoot #DesignerLook #FashionPhotography #MelbourneFashion #BeachEditorial #StyleInspiration #PhotographyLife #FashionDesign #ModernSilhouette

Spending Australia Day by the sea with Erica, debuting my summer black lace set. I wanted to design something that felt both delicate and daring, set against the wild Victorian coastline. #AustralianDesigner #SummerDesigns #LaceSet #ResortWear #SlowFashion #HandmadeAustralia #BohoChic #AustralianFashion #DesignerLife #FashionPhotography #PortraitPhotography #PhotographyLife #FashionPhotographer #PhotoShoot

That effortless transition from a chic Parisian silhouette to a bold street-style attitude is everything. 🥐✨ We went from Emily in Paris vibes straight into a look that feels ready for the city streets. It was so much fun watching Sampada adapt her energy as we moved through the looks. #StreetStyleLux #FashionEvolution #StudioSession #NewFace #EditorialFashion #StyleTransition #streetvibes #designer #fashion #fashionphotographer #MelbourneCreatives

Emily in Paris" called, and they definitely need this look for Season 5. 🥐✨ There is such a chic, Parisian energy to this outfit. It’s the kind of effortless vibe that belongs on a stroll through the Place de l'Estrape. Sampada is absolutely channeling her inner Camille or Emily here! #EmilyInParisStyle #ParisianVibes #BeretStyle #HighFashionLook #StudioEditorial #ChicAesthetic #MonochromeFashion

There is something so rewarding about a studio day that feels more like a creative hangout than a formal shoot. We spent the afternoon raiding the collection, laughing through the awkward poses, and fueled by a solid lunch pitstop, dialed back in. Witnessing a new talent find their light is the best part of collaborating with new models. Sampada is a natural—genuine, effortless, and followed directions to a tee. It’s rare to see someone balance a lot of fun behind the scenes with such a striking presence the moment the shutter clicks. 😊 #FashionPhotography #EditorialPortrait #StudioVibes #NewFace #ModelDiscovery #NepaleseModel #StyleInspo #MelbournePhotographer #CreativeDirection #PhotoshootLife #PortraitVision #ModernChic #WardrobeStyling #ModelScout #FreshFace #StudioLighting #photography #photographers

A little flash back to before winter. Can't believe I've been hibernating and kind of unmotivated to make anything since then. I'm super keen to get sewing again and have a few things in the works already. Thanks to @ericadamond and @_simran._ for modelling my looks. #model #modelling #photography #photographer #fashion #fashiondesign #fashiondesigner
